Draft Grade — Bears
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Bears, and a B to prove it.

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Markis Deal in the Round 7 slot, a good 49 spots before the room expected him. No fireworks, but a solid B.

However the rest shakes out, Lawson at that price is a win they earned. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick16 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
In the Round 1 slot they get an enforcer at safety, and a steal at that. More want than need.
Pick48 Rnd2 Deontae Lawson
A linebacker of that caliber at pick 48 is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick80 Rnd3 Jonah Coleman
They paid sticker price for Jonah Coleman in the 80th overall pick, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick126 Rnd4 Domani Jackson
Somehow Domani Jackson was still sitting there in pick No. 126, and they pounced on premier cornerback value. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick155 Rnd5 Barion Brown
They talked themselves into Barion Brown at No. 155, and the board did not agree. It fills a real need, too.
Pick194 Rnd6 Fernando Carmona
They went early on Fernando Carmona in slot 194, and the value did not follow. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick229 Rnd7 Rueben Owens
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Rueben Owens. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick248 Rnd7 Markis Deal
Markis Deal at Round 7, Pick 32 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
